FRESH FLOWERS FROM THE FARM<br />

<strong>Brent</strong> <strong>and</strong> Becky’s Bouquets<br />

Fresh from the Farm<br />

FLOWER OF THE SEASON<br />

For Any Reason<br />

In the 70‛s <strong>and</strong> 80‛s, <strong>Brent</strong> <strong>and</strong> I picked<br />

daffodils on our farm, sold them by the box <strong>and</strong><br />

shipped them overnight to those who wanted<br />

something special <strong>and</strong> different. We were only<br />

growing daffodils at the time, but we were growing<br />

about 3000 different types, so the boxes were<br />

FLOWERS OF THE SEASON...FOR ANY REASON<br />

more! Someone suggested that others may enjoy<br />

having field grown flowers for their corporate<br />

gifts, their office, home, spouse or friend. So<br />

we‛re offering you the opportunity to order<br />

One of our spring gardens<br />

<strong>Brent</strong> <strong>and</strong> Becky in the early 80’s with<br />

bouquets of freshly picked daffodils<br />

fresh, farm raised mixed bouquets from March<br />

15th - October 15th. At this moment, we can‛t tell<br />

you what colors will be in bloom on any given day,<br />

but we would love to know your preference (pastel;<br />

hot colors; patriotic) <strong>and</strong> we will do our<br />

Becky in the 80’s with many bunches<br />

of all different types of daffodils<br />

amazingly beautiful. When we made the decision<br />

to open our farm <strong>and</strong> home gardens for tours, we<br />

stopped picking <strong>and</strong> selling the flowers, because,<br />

if we picked the flowers, there weren‛t as much<br />

for the gardeners to see when they came for the<br />

garden tour. Now we have additional property <strong>and</strong><br />

have added additional gardens on the farm. Since<br />

One of our summer gardens<br />

best. If there is a color you just can‛t abide, we‛d<br />

like to know that, too. We‛ll give you a call if the<br />

weather doesn‛t cooperate. As gardeners, you<br />

know we are ruled by ‘Mother Nature‛ so keep that<br />

in mind. These will NOT be ‘greenhouse flowers‛!<br />

They will be organically grown. We will use NO<br />

pesticides or chemicals so you‛ll be able to put your<br />

nose right in the bouquet <strong>and</strong> enjoy the fragrance<br />

without worries! (unless you have allergies, which<br />

you‛ll have to deal with!) We are excited to offer<br />

you the choice of a mixed bouquet with or without<br />

a vase. These will be shipped overnight by UPS,<br />

(otherwise, they don‛t guarantee delivery the<br />

very next day!) so PLEASE give us a very specific<br />

physical address <strong>and</strong> the telephone number of the<br />

person receiving it just in case UPS needs to call<br />

for directions.<br />

Boxes of 10 each of 10 different types of daffodils being<br />

sent to an American Daffodil Society Show<br />

the 70‛s, we have added to the palatte, many more<br />

types of plant material that give us beautiful flowers.<br />

We‛ve been sharing them with neighbors <strong>and</strong><br />

friends, but there are almost always many<br />

#103-01 Mixed Bouquet $60<br />

#103-02 Mixed Bouquet + vase $75<br />

So, what are you getting for this? Stem thicknesses<br />

<strong>and</strong> flower heads are SO diverse in the<br />

garden flowers, that it‛s difficult to say. (i.e. Alliums<br />

versus Dutch Iris; Lilies versus Crocosmias)<br />

When the stems are bound together, you will have<br />

a BIG h<strong>and</strong> full of flower stems! (AT LEAST the<br />

circumference of a baseball). We feel confident<br />

that you‛ll enjoy them!<br />
